How much does the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe cost?

Prices have softened 12.04% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,873 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe a good car?

Yes — the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe earns a 4.85/5 user rating and an 8.17/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Technology and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its value, safety features, comfort, spacious interior, and ride quality. That lines up with the Santa Fe’s positioning as a value-focused crossover that sits between compact and larger midsize SUVs, so you get a useful size advantage without moving into a bigger family hauler.

Good and great deals account for 33.2% of listings, which suggests there are still worthwhile opportunities if you shop carefully.

Is the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe reliable?

Owners rate it 4.85/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Owner feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience for many shoppers, with repeated praise for value, comfort, and the sense that it is a solid choice in its class. The expert drive notes also emphasize composed driving and solid value, which supports the impression that this is a crossover you can count on for everyday use.

The main long-term ownership risk for used buyers is that some owners mention occasional reliability concerns, particularly with the battery, so a careful pre-purchase inspection matters.

What should I look for when buying a used 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe?

At 72.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a thorough inspection of bodywork, alignment, and any signs of prior repair. It also makes sense to focus on overall condition, since owner feedback highlights comfort and ride quality but also mentions road noise and occasional reliability concerns.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The SE comes with 17-inch alloy wheels, high-beam assist, power heated side mirrors, LED daytime running lights, manual seats, and remote keyless entry. Higher trims add fog lights, power adjustment, heated front seats, push-button start, parking sensors, rear-occupant alert, dual automatic climate control, a premium sound system, full LED lighting, a panoramic sunroof, leather seating, memory settings, heated rear seats, and ventilated front seats.
• Powertrain: All trims use a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder with 185 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque, while the Limited and Ultimate can be had with a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder making 235 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. The base engine is described as sluggish, while the turbo is praised for strong acceleration.
• Safety package: Hyundai Smart Sense includes forward-collision avoidance, blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go traffic capability, and rear cross-path detection. Safe Exit Assist is also standard, and it ties the rear child-proof locks to blind-spot monitoring.
• Infotainment: The base setup includes a 7-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth, USB, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto. SEL and above add satellite radio, HD Radio, and BlueLink with Alexa integration, while the Ultimate gets an 8-inch touchscreen, a head-up display, and wireless charging.
• Fuel efficiency: The front-wheel-drive 2.4-liter version is rated at 22 mpg city, 29 highway, and 25 combined. The AWD turbo version is rated at 19 mpg city, 24 highway, and 21 combined.

Which 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe trim should I buy?

The 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe is offered in 5 trim levels: SE, SEL, SEL Plus, Limited, and Ultimate.

Here's the short version:

• SE: This is the value pick if you want the most standard equipment for the money. You get the core safety and tech features, plus the essentials that make the Santa Fe feel well equipped right away.
• SEL: This trim adds a more comfortable daily-driving setup with heated front seats, an 8-way power driver’s seat, fog lights, and push-button start. It is a sensible step up if you want more convenience without jumping too far in price.
• SEL Plus: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it bridges the gap between the lower trims and the premium end. It adds 18-inch wheels, parking sensors, rear-occupant alert, dual-zone climate control, and a 630-watt Infinity audio system.
• Limited: This trim brings a more upscale feel with full LED lighting, satin chrome door handles, a panoramic sunroof, and leather seating. It is the right choice if you want the Santa Fe to feel noticeably more premium.
• Ultimate: This is the most feature-rich version, adding rain-sensing wipers, memory settings, heated front and rear seats, ventilated front seats, a head-up display, wireless charging, and the larger 8-inch touchscreen. It suits you if you want the most comfort and convenience features available.

The safety package is standard across the lineup, which makes even the lower trims appealing if you care most about value.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some leverage if you stay disciplined.

• Deal availability: 33.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,873 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.04% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 72.8% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $15,116, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe's resale value?

The current average of $15,188 sits slightly below last year's $17,266.

That decline suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you as a buyer today but may limit near-term upside if you plan to resell soon. If you buy at the right price and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you can reduce the impact of that depreciation curve.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.85/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe safe?

The 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

It comes standard with Hyundai Smart Sense, which includes forward-collision avoidance, blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability, and rear cross-path detection. Safe Exit Assist is also standard, and the Santa Fe includes a full array of airbags, a reversing camera, and tire pressure monitoring.

That standard safety content is a major strength, especially if you are comparing lower trims against rivals that reserve more driver-assistance features for pricier versions.

Should I buy a 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2019 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2019 if:

• 33.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 72.8% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 12.04% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.85/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It combines strong value, standard safety tech, and a more modern two-row layout.

Consider the 2018 if:

• At $14,420, the 2018 costs less than the current year's $15,188 average.
• It is a bargain-focused, safe, roomy, and dependable three-row crossover.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $16,833, the 2020 costs more than the current year's $15,188 average.
• It adds a standard rear-seat reminder and an available camera-based Blind-Spot View Monitor.

The bottom line: If you want the best mix of value, safety, and modern features, the 2019 is the strongest all-around choice. If your budget is tighter, the 2018 can save you money, while the 2020 makes sense if you want the newer updates and are willing to pay more.
